Checking Visual Depth Against Vanilla Aesthetics

Inspecting World Depth Across Different Times of Day

Cozy & Light enhances environmental depth while preserving the original feel of vanilla Minecraft. To evaluate how your builds look:

1. Load into your main world or a creative testing world.

2. Observe outdoor terrain during midday, sunset, and nighttime.

3. Check the edges where blocks meet shadows. The shader adds soft, realistic shading around structural corners and terrain crevices without turning the screen excessively dark.

Comparing Builds to the Vanilla Style

If you prefer standard Minecraft visuals without heavy post-processing:

1. Walk through a settlement or village built with standard wood and stone blocks.

2. Verify that block textures remain clean and recognizable, free of over-saturated color filters or intrusive blur effects.

3. Inspect your survival base to ensure that the softer lighting enhances your construction while leaving the core vanilla look completely intact.
